In this paper we study the notion of strong non-reflection, and its contrapositive weak reflection. We say theta strongly non-reflects at lambda iff there is a function F: theta ---> lambda such that for all alpha < theta with cf(alpha)=…
In this paper the lightface $\Pi^{1}_{1}$-Comprehension axiom is shown to be proof-theoretically strong even over $\mbox{RCA}_{0}^{*}$, and we calibrate the proof-theoretic ordinals of weak fragments of the theory $\mbox{ID}_{1}$ of…
Let $\mathsf{KP}$ denote Kripke-Platek Set Theory and let $\mathsf{M}$ be the weak set theory obtained from $\mathsf{ZF}$ by removing the collection scheme, restricting separation to $\Delta_0$-formulae and adding an axiom asserting that…
Hoare's logic is an axiomatic system of proving programs correct, which has been extended to be a separation logic to reason about mutable heap structure. We develop the most fundamental logical structure of strongest postcondition of…
A foundational theory of compositional categorical rewriting theory is presented, based on a collection of fibration-like properties that collectively induce and intrinsically structure the large collection of lemmata used in the proofs of…
By Lindstr\"{o}m's theorems, the expressive power of first order logic (and similarly continuous logic) is not strengthened without losing some interesting property. Weakening it, is however less harmless and has been payed attention by…
Classically, any structure for a signature $\Sigma$ may be completed to a model of a desired regular theory $T$ by means of the chase construction or small object argument. Moreover, this exhibits $\mathrm{Mod}(T)$ as weakly reflective in…
PCF is a sequential simply typed lambda calculus language. There is a unique order-extensional fully abstract cpo model of PCF, built up from equivalence classes of terms. In 1979, G\'erard Berry defined the stable order in this model and…
The univalence axiom expresses the principle of extensionality for dependent type theory. However, if we simply add the univalence axiom to type theory, then we lose the property of canonicity - that every closed term computes to a…
We prove two completeness results, one for the extension of dependence logic by a monotone generalized quantifier Q with weak interpretation, weak in the meaning that the interpretation of Q varies with the structures. The second result…
We extend de Finetti's (1937) notion of exchangeability to finite and countable sequences of variables, when a subject's beliefs about them are modelled using coherent lower previsions rather than (linear) previsions. We prove…
We investigate non-wellfounded proof systems based on parsimonious logic, a weaker variant of linear logic where the exponential modality ! is interpreted as a constructor for streams over finite data. Logical consistency is maintained at a…
Given a parameter dependent fixed point equation $x = F(x,u)$, we derive an abstract compactness principle for the fixed point map $u \mapsto x^*(u)$ under the assumptions that (i) the fixed point equation can be solved by the contraction…
The purpose of this article is to establish theories concerning $p$-adic analogues of Hodge cohomology and Deligne-Beilinson cohomology with coefficients in variations of mixed Hodge structures. We first study log overconvergent…
A graph class $\mathscr{C}$ is called monadically stable if one cannot interpret, in first-order logic, arbitrary large linear orders in colored graphs from $\mathscr{C}$. We prove that the model checking problem for first-order logic is…
As Paris and Harrington have famously shown, Peano Arithmetic does not prove that for all numbers $k,m,n$ there is an $N$ which satisfies the statement $\operatorname{PH}(k,m,n,N)$: For any $k$-colouring of its $n$-element subsets the set…
It is well-known that the square principle $\square_\lambda$ entails the existence of a non-reflecting stationary subset of $\lambda^+$, whereas the weak square principle $\square^*_\lambda$ does not. Here we show that if…
The general completeness problem of Hoare logic relative to the standard model $N$ of Peano arithmetic has been studied by Cook, and it allows for the use of arbitrary arithmetical formulas as assertions. In practice, the assertions would…
A discrete group which admits a faithful, finite dimensional, linear representation over a field $\mathbb F$ of characteristic zero is called linear. This note combines the natural structure of semi-direct products with work of A. Lubotzky…
It is known that, among all the monotone decompositions of a planar compact set K with Peano hyperspaces, there exists a unique one that is finer than all the others. We call it the "core decomposition" of K with Peano hyperspace. The…
